It’s been very busy around here in Beetsland. I jumped back into school full time while trying to keep up with the blogging and making time for relaxation. We all need a day to unwind, right? I recently spent a day relaxing at Wekiva Island, a beautiful scenic spot just north of Orlando. I have …

And my heart is a flutter again because guess …

Well, that was not a fun hurrication. #IrmaGerd #Irmageddon Hurricane Irma was just a hoot. She couldn’t decide which coast to visit in Florida so she put the whole state in a panic. Residents from the East coast of Florida evacuated to the West coast, then when Irma decided the West coast was more to …
